Huts were covered with snow - There was a fresh frost. The blizzard swept all the roads and tracks everywhere. A beautiful girl takes some water from a draw-well. She takes it and looks around - Young people are around! And the water is rippling Covered with ice. A black-browed lady stood for a while and lifted the rocker arms. And almost doused her new fur coat with water. The beautiful girl goes along the street almost like a peacock. And Ivanushka appeared out of the gates going towards her. And he looked into her clear eyes and he said the word in her way - Hello, hello, beautiful girl! Let me help you to carry the buckets! And Vanyusha began to raise the oak buckets and to hug and kiss the black-browed one with the smile. The beautiful lady smiled brighter than the sun. You Blizzard, get stronger! You wind, blow aside! RUSSIAN LYRICS: Быстро тучи проносилися тёмно-синею грядой. Избы снегом запушилися - был морозец молодой. Занесла кругом метелица все дороги и следы. Из колодца красна девица достаёт себе воды. Достаёт и озирается - молодёженька кругом! А водица колыхается Позадернутая льдом. Постояла чернобровая, коромысла подняла И свою шубейку новую чуть водой не залила. Вдоль по улице как павушка Красна девица идет, А навстречу ей Иванушка показался из ворот. И взглянув ей в очи ясные тихо молвил на пути - Здравствуй, здравствуй, девка красная! Дай мне ведра понести! Вдруг ведерочки дубовые стал Ванюша подымать и с улыбкой чернобровую обнимать и целовать. Улыбнулась красна девица солнца яркого светлей Разгуляйся ты метелица, ветер в сторону повей! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is the official video channel of the Russian operatic singer Leonid Mikhailovich Kharitonov (bass-baritone).
